One shall have to get a picture of one of our clients comms racks that has gotten a little out of hand. (Due to my useless manager & rapid growth).

I really is just a wall of cables. (And 5 dumb switches, stacked with a single 100mb link between each one.)

It may be worth asking to work a few weekends (double time ofcourse) to get the cabs tidied up. It's not so bad where I work, we have about 45-55 92U cabs to sort out in the new project.

Been meaning to post in this thread for a while.

Main switch cabinet

Front of server cabinet (including SANs, UPS, a tapeloader and KVM)

Rear of server cabinet

Our ad-hoc cabinet for things that mostly don't need rackmounting.

They have a few tvs dotted around, they seem to go over cat5 to the other floors as far as i could tell.

Two of us did all 3 buildings with 5 floors each over a few weekends, they varied but i'd say about half were in a similar state to the one above.

My boss got a quote for a company to come in which came to 45k :eek:
